Mega excited to announce the revamping of the Cherry Clinton playground in the LES, a collaborative effort between @cookieshoops, @project_backboard and @acommonpractice. The beautiful design is the work of dawg x-ray @andrewkuostudio — and our next tournament is coming soon. In the meantime, go hoop there!

Thanks to the whole squad who made it a reality:

Had a great time attending a Knicks game with @jonathanblitzer and @newyorkermag, where @andrewkuostudio and I chatted about “The Joy of Basketball” and @cookieshoops. Truly a treat! It’s in the December 13th issue.

“The Joy of Basketball” now exists. It’s the first book I’ve ever written—alongside the extraordinary @andrewkuostudio—and the abruptness of it becoming tactile feels a little surreal. I’m proud of what we’ve created and we hope it conveys why we’re so cartoonishly into the sport of basketball.

Many thanks to @desusnice for contributing a fantastic foreword and to @abramsbooks for letting us follow our vision. Our book is available for pre-order now and officially comes out on November 9th. Link in bio!

Over the last year, @andrewkuostudio and I wrote a book about the last quarter century of the NBA. It’s an illustrated tome that covers superstars, trends, style, which players resemble bucatini, and much more. It comes out October 19th on @abramsbooks and is available for presale now!
